Customer wishes to appeal for waiver of large bill rec'd for period or 3/01 thru 3/31 in 2004.
SHE CALLED ON 3-28-97 TO COMPLAIN ABOUT BEING BILLED TWICE THE NUMBER OF GALLONS OF WATER MORE THAN SHE HAS BEEN PREVIOUSLY BILLED SINCE SHE HAS LIVED AT THIS ADDRESS.
I am still listed as the account responsible for the water bill on this address I have not lived here since last year.
My roommates and I have discovered that there was a leak with one of our toilets which caused it to continously run. So after we received our first month water bill we noticed that the bill was outrageously high and we immediately called the landlord to fix the leak. Since there was a leak, I am requesting a water bill appeal form if possible. Thank you.

Letter received from Harold G. Carter for McDoel Baptist Church. Customer claims that charges he received were not his and belonged to another customer.
Letter dated 3/10/04 from Emogene H. Carter for property owned by Harold Carter stated at the end of Jan., Util. ofc. was called to check on overcharge of $28.41. Later, a copy of account breakdown was received confirming overcharge. Correction did not show up in either February or March bill.
We live in Hoosier Court Apartments, Unit HC 503, managed by Hunter Bloomington Properties, and we are reporting an unresolved water issue that has caused extreme billing and financial hardship. At the end of August and beginning of September, the water system for the entire Hoosier Court community malfunctioned. During the repair, the leasing company’s maintenance workers intentionally released a large amount of water from the pipeline located directly in front of our unit. This caused significant water wastage outside our home, completely outside our control. Before this incident, our average water bill was around $170. Immediately afterward, our bills increased to: $250 for August $936 for September $922 for October We contacted the leasing office multiple times by phone, email, messages, and about seven in-person visits. They delayed responding and eventually offered only a $550 refund, even though the excess charges for September alone were around $850–$900, leaving $300 still unresolved. For October, they told us they “cannot promise anything” and have provided no solution. To verify the issue, we contacted City of Bloomington Utilities, who gave us access to a usage portal. The portal shows our line is using about 50 gallons per hour continuously, which the city confirmed is not possible for normal residential use and indicates an ongoing leak/outflow in the line connected to our unit—not inside our apartment. Despite this, the leasing company insists there is “no leak,” will not fully reimburse us, and has not addressed the problem. As a result, we are being charged around $1000 per month for water we did not use and cannot afford. We are requesting HAND’s assistance because the issue is occurring outside our unit in infrastructure maintained by the leasing company, and all attempts to resolve it directly have failed.
I have been paying my bill online for years. Now the site doesn't work and there is no help file or contact info. It has rejected 3 credit cards with no explanation. Find a better/more flexible vendor. I can't pay my bill. Grr. Michael Wilkerson 1010 S. Hawthorne Dr.
